"ver·di·gris - a bright bluish-green encrustation or patina formed on copper or brass by atmospheric oxidation, consisting of basic copper carbonate." - Oxford Languages* 1953 #Gibson #ES295, spotted yesterday at @folkwaymusic.  You don't see many vintage 295s around (or modern ones for that matter!) and I just love it when the #goldtop gold finish has cracked and aged, and gone green around the edges like this one has. I don't know the chemical formulation of Gibson's goldtop gold...but I am going to wager it contains copper!

An incredibly special WednESday this week, with the #guitar that kick-started rock n roll (in Scotty Moore's hands).

But not just that: this Gibson ES295 was bought new in 1957 as part of a set with the #GA30 amp and accessories seen here, and essentially put into storage for over six decades. Then @capsulemusic acquired the complete set earlier this year, and had literally no trouble selling it to a lucky Toronto collector. You just do not see a set like this come up every day!

Pure #GibSunday gold. 1957 #Gibson #ES295 with matching #GibsonGA30 #amplifier from the original owner! Also dig the swag: Gibson catalogue and brochure, "vibrarest" on top of amp) and original box (in front of case, left), strings (front of case, right), Gibson club card (in case, right)...and my favourite...Gibson "multi selector" picks (lined up on edge of case top, left. The things that look like little throwing stars)! Each pick has three different picking surfaces of different thicknesses. Want to change from heavy to thin? No need to stop playing and change picks...just rotate your multi selector pick! 🤣 PS if anyone knows what these things are officially called, let me know...I just used the term "multi selector" for lack of the real name! 😂 #gibsones295 #scottymoore #Elvis #gibsonamp #amps #amp #vintageamp #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #vintageguitars #vintagegibson #gibsonguitars #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #vintagegear #gibsonsofinstagram #guitarphotography (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CetKi2Hu8P-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

2013 #GibsonMemphis #ES295 Reissue, loaned to me by @tomgibson3783. . This is a shot I took in one of my darker moments...both figuratively and literally! I guess I'm posting it in the hope that a little underexposure will get me a lot of overexposure. 🤣 But enough pseudo levity: I thought the lower light levels in this really accentuated the richness of the lovely gold finish on this guitar. If you can't see that then your phone brightness is set too low lol. . #GoldtopTuesday #Gibson #gibsones295 #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #gibsoncustom #customshop #reissue #gibsonguitars #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #guitargear #vintagegear #guitarsdaily #gibsonsofinstagram #guitarphotography (at Peterborough, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYmV78FraZg/?utm_medium=tumblr
